Blaise Matuidi opened the scoring after just three minutes played, with a shot into the right side of the goal after being released inside the box by a lofted pass from Angel di Maria.
Just before the quarter-hour mark, however, Marseille were level, Florian Thauvin picking the ball up in space and firing a shot from the edge of the box that was deflected past Salvatore Sirigu.
At the start of the second half PSG had the chance to surge back into the lead after Nicolas N'Koulou gave away a penalty, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic duly made no mistake from the spot.
Laurent Blanc's charges then added a third after Ibrahimovic set Edinson Cavani free in the Phoceens' area, and the Uruguayan lashed the ball into the bottom right corner of the net.
The game was put beyond Marseille's reach when Ibrahimovic slotted home from close range with eight minutes to go, and even though Michy Batshuayi netted a consolation late on, the trophy would nevertheless be on its way to the French capital.
